Arily Michele / Josie James / Sharks & Minnows

From the venue:

Event Description

Arily Michele is named after an acronym her parents used in letters to each other: "Always remember I love you" — a level of sentimentality that is thoughtfully expressed in her songwriting. Known for her haunting vocals and detuned, R&B-infused dreampop sound, Arily began writing songs as a child and started producing music at the age of 14 by layering synth loops over programmed drum beats, crafting lyrics to match, and recording them in her bedroom. Her sophomore record, a self-produced, psychedelic pop concept album called Highway Hypnosis, will be released on July 26, 2024.
 
Josie James is an incredibly talented alternative/indie singer hailing from Atlanta, Georgia. With her soulful vocals, heartfelt lyrics, and captivating melodies, Josie has been making waves in the music scene. Her unique blend of alternative and indie sounds creates a mesmerizing musical experience that leaves listeners wanting more. Whether she's performing on stage or recording in the studie, Josie's passion for music shines through in every note!
 
Sharks & Minnows formed in Atlanta, Georgia, shy of the 21st century. Indie rock stalwarts in a former life, Sharks and Minnows returned after a decade of dormancy, embracing a new kaleidoscopic, cinematic vision. Always melodic, always atmospheric, the band moves gracefully across genres from danceable pop to furious punk to their classic indie rock sound. Embracing an intimate lyrical focus and experimental approach to songwriting, Sharks and Minnows has reemerged with a newfound maturity and enduring enthusiasm. Still a quartet aware of the trappings of indie rock, Sharks and Minnows pushes against boundaries. Though comparisons to other artists might be applicable (Yo La Tengo, Spoon), Sharks and Minnows truly sounds like no one other than themselves.
